The West Australian

While driving about I listened to Kanye West and soon I began to consume the lyrics. As I listened, "Runaway" came on. Due to this being one of my favorite songs, it really speaks to me.

I realized that if I didn't change my ways, the people closest to me would also runaway from me. I remember stopping at a red light and…

The battle between our own states was a raging and bloody war for both the north and the south. Throughout the war the officers were often treated like royalty compared to that of the men that, I feel, did most of the hard work. The enlisted men did not get the same quality of goods as the officers and were forced to make good with what they got. I could not imagine sleeping in half of a tent or somehow having to find a way to join two halves together as you can see in the pictures shown at Camp…

The North and the South: Civil War Era In the mid-1800s, turmoil broke between the North and the South states. The Southern Confederate states and the Northern Union states shared different beliefs. There were slave states in the South and free states in the North. These two territories shared many other differences, as well as a few minor similarities.

We see pictures of poverty on the news from many different communities across the nation, but often, little of this news coverage is given to the people living in Appalachia. The ABC 20/20 episode entitled A Hidden America: Children of the Mountains shines a much needed light on the daily struggles people living in Central Appalachia face. Watching Children of the Mountains was a sobering experience for me. The most surprising thing in this video was the drug abuse and drug dealing. It was…
